See How Much Energy Your Neigbours Use

I spotted this on Springwise a while ago but thought it was quite interesting and I’d share.

A company called Positive Energy in America works with local utility companies to let people know not only their energy use but also their neighbours. It adds a social side to energy use and I’d suggest they hope a bit of competitiveness – trying to use less than a similar house.

It’s a nice idea to try and change people’s behaviour, whether it works or not remains to be seen.
